Visigothic Versals are an exclusive,
distinct and independent lettering tradition unique to
7th - 11th century Spain. This is the magnificent
artistic period under the rule and influence of Islam,
when the Ottoman Empire of the East met the Holy
Roman Empire of the West! The results were one of
Spain's greatest treasure and the most important
religious writing of the Middle Ages - the Beatus
Manuscripts The manuscripts designs are in the
Mozarabic art style, which unites early Arabic roots
with the traditions of Christian manuscripts. They're
written in Visigothic Versals.
